Two property lawyers are among the 18 new partners announced by Linklaters & Paines this week.
James Knox, a development specialist with a substantial German client base, joins the partnership at its London office. Xavier Hunter practises Russian property law from the firm’s Moscow office.
In addition, Vanessa Harvard-Williams has been appointed as a partner in the firm’s environmental law group.
The appointments are effective from 1 May.
Head of property Robert Finch said the appointments showed Linklaters’ commitment to maintaining property “at the heart of its business”.
